I had ~ 34 Gb tar backup last week. No problem with RedHat 9 (and maybe 8),
so there's no OS/FS limit (at least not with ext3). Then I split-ed it into
700Mb chunks to burn it on CDs. After this I've tested it to see if I can
use it to recover the system - all fine. RedHat 7.? seems to have 2Gb limit.
